The low voltage Fulham round electronic high frequency transformer is designed with UL recognized components and solid state electronics. Its features include dimming capability as well as short circuit, overload and thermal protection. The transformer is capable of operating a variety of lamps with a maximum load of 300-watts.

Uses: used to power 12-volt AC lighting systems

Maximum 300 Watts of Load: 300 watts maximum of lighting load. Unlike most magnetic transformers, these electronic transformers can be used to power the maximum wattage. [Caution: Always attach the load to the transformer before connecting the transformer to power.]

Minimum 20 Watts of Load: minimum load without dimmer is 20 watts; minimum load with dimmer is 50 watts. Unless this transformer is powering at least 20 watts of lighting load it will not work properly.

Dimmable: fully dimmable using a dimmer designed for an electronic transformer. An electronic transformer can sometimes work with a standard incandescent dimmer. However, to ensure that your lighting system works effectively with the greatest dimming range we recommend that you use a dimmer that was specifically designed to control an electronic low voltage transformer. Additionally, using this type of dimmer will diminish the possibility of an audible hum when the dimmer is used � especially at low light levels. [Caution: dimmer should always be connected to the input side, 120V side, of a transformer.]

I have a 2 track, low voltage rail lighting system. The transformer is over heating after several hours of being on and the lights shut off until it cools down and works again. I am thinking I can replace with this item as it is approx the same size as the round transformer that is currently there. Thoughts?

Answer:

Aaron,

You may want to first make sure you aren't overloading the existing transformer. It may be as a simple as using a lower wattage light bulb so that it doesn't overheat.

Other than that, yes, if your system is 12V and less than 300W then this would be a good replacement.

Answer:

I purchased the transformer and installed it. It works perfectly. I would recommend it.
